Database Users

[APP Update 12.12.08] Commandline WeatherDatabase Editor (add new locations to TF3D)

I read on the below mentioned page that adding new cities to TF3D was really easy, and they were right,
the only problem is that i don't want to install something that I'm only going to use once
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=408918&highlight=weatherdatabase
So I created my own version, which does the same as the WeatherDatabaseEditor from andreas.falke
with the exception that it requires minimal user intervention so it can be used in SDConfig.txt or similar solutions.
Also if your country is not listed it will make a new entry in the country list.
It has been tested on my MDA Compact4 (Diamond + Dutty's V1.7 Rom)
And it works like a charm, let me know what you think
I'm not sure if it will work on any other device, but because the Diamond is the first of many TF3D devices
the generic "Development & Hacking" forum seemed to be a better choice,
MODs please move this topic if you think it should be in the Diamond App's section.
Currently you'll get a popup when the app is completed, I might change this in future version(s)
Don't forget to edit locations.txt prior to running the app!
Requirements:
- CF.Net, I tested this with 3.5 not sure if it works with 2.0
How To:
1. Save/Unzip (I advise in the internal Storage) just put the files in a folder.
2. Edit locations.txt, there are already a couple locations in there, Region is optional and first line can be ignored.
3. run CmdWC3.exe
4. To be save do a softreset
To Do :
1. Remove the currently selected Cities (or atleast an option to remove them)
2. Make popup optional
3. new version which has an interface, silent operation would be done by arguments "\Storage card\CmdWC3.exe Silent"
Any Comments?
Thanks to
R. DevilR for pointing out how it's done
andreas.falke for his work
idsk for the registry tweak
Garfield for his Tut (Yes i read that one too)
N2A for the website that makes this all possible
-=Edit=-
I've tested with some roms and here are the results
Dutty's Full 1.7 & 1.8 - Works
SwiftBL v6.0 - Works
SCv2.8 NL_Black - Fails
TLR 3.08.07.16 - Fails *
Bepe 0.97 - Fails *
DIB Diamond v1.22 neon - works (thanks Teto )
udK Syrius HD - Failed (Fixed in V5)
* issue is twofold, it looks like they use a different layout of the manila file... working on it
-=Edit 12.12.2008 =-
I recently changed to the udK Syrius HD Rom, but CmdWC3 didn't work, so
made a new version.
My advise, First run Version 3, if this doesn't work run version 5
Restart* and you should be able to select the proper city.
At least that was what I did with the Syrius Rom.
*I just tried with restarting TF3D only and that also seems to do the trick.
Please let me know if it worked (or not) and which Rom you are using.
Thanks
-=edit 01/07/09 =-
Just noticed that the locations.txt included in the first attachment is missing a > next to city....
you could get some error messages...
sorry bout that.

worked like a charm, thanks

I added it to my list and it did work, do you have a German version rom?
if so what is the foldername of the Windows folder?
I think the App cannot find the manila files...

hi, yes i have a german version, the bepe 0.97 ROM.
The Windows Folder is called "Windows", also standard.
but your cab .exe file is in the internal 4GB Storage, called "Interner Speicher" in german.

The internal Storage naming sholdn't be an issue, I think it has to do with Bepe's rom, the orriginal idea (and application) has the same issue
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=408918&highlight=weatherdatabase
2. install WeatherDatabaseEditor from andreas.falke, the latest version is 1.1.
If it doesn't work (for TLR or bElite ROM for example), you can try this "patched" WDE (from PPC-Welt, it seems).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
which one are you using premium, basic or lite?
I know TLR has tweaked TF3D to be uninstallable (whatever that may mean)
so there are some diffrences..
Could you check if you have the 2330fc3c_manila and _2330fc3c_manila (in \Windows folder)?
could be that they are hidden...
Just so i have it right, the entry does not show up in TF3D...right?
Also could you post the 2330fc3c_manila file?

Small update, I've checked bepe 0.97
it seems that he's using a slightly different version of 2330fc3c_manila
which doesn't have the Countries listed, also
the application cannot change the properties of the file to be able to write to it...
Checking if the Countries are mentioned is not the problem, fixed that already
it is setting the file overwritable thats the issue..
I'm sorry but i don't see a solution besides manually copy pasting a already fixed 2330fc3c_manila & _2330fc3c_manila to the windoes folder...
Sorry
maybe in the future...
-=edit=-
I'm looking into this again, i can't stand it that it doesn't work...

Well done, thanks! It's really handy in combination with automated installers like Sashimi. Even more when you've added the silent operation and removal option. If this works on the ROM's I'll flash in the future, I won't have to manually change anything weather related after flashing. That would be

I can post it but it could very well be my user error. I know that when listing cities in the U.S. the go in a little diffrently on all of the Accuweather programs. How is your command line program set up to recieve the US cities and I will try that first.

Code:

Not sure how/where you would get the data, maybe this helps:
http://www.gizmorepublic.com/portable/htc-touch-how-to-get-your-local-weather-3740
<Country> will be added to the country list (if not exist)
<Region> & <City> will be added in the country
You could name the country aaaaa so it will be the first one that pops up...

SQL problem...
I'm trying to add:
Canada,Newfoundland,St. John's,NAM|CA|NL|SAINT JOHN'S
It is complaining about the ' character. I believe your SQL statement is getting confused by the ' in "St. John's" and "SAINT JOHN'S". You need to make sure when you read from the text file you encapsulate the string with quotes like "<string>" before you try to insert into the DB...
Sounds like a great prg, I hope you can fix it for me or give me the src and I will fix it. Thanks!

try this way.softreset your phone and when your phone ask pin code dont punch your sim code the another way leave your phone offline mode.and try to use cab file.it suppose to install without problem.cheers

I installed the Touch-IT_Blackstone_dialer.zip and it's great! But there is one problem. I have a Swedish Xperia and it bothers me that while everything else is in Swedish, the text "Slide to answer/ignore" is in English. I've searched the forum and found out that I have to change that text in Windows\PHCANHTC.dll. I tried to do that using a hex editor, also tried to sign the DLL using siggner.exe. But when I copy the file to the Windows folder and do a soft reset, the dialer is back to the Windows standard dialer (which is ugly and doesn't have the video call feature).
Does anyone know why it doesn't work? What am I doing wrong? Or does anyone have a working Swedish version of the file? (I know there is one, I saw a screenshot where the text was "Skjut för att svara/ignorera")
Please help me, this is driving me crazy!

You sure did a soft reset? Cause the cab doesn't ask for it. My app only worked after a reset. But it is possible that the manila.cab only works on german systems. In this case I'm awfully sorry.

I looked this file up in the windows directory. It is a german language file for manila. Thanks anyway. I am looking for the file responsible for english translation for calendar tab in manila. Thanks, anyway

It work cooked in with no problem. I just want to install this new version which seems to really work good on our Leo by cab. If it works then I will try to remove the Tutorial WMV file included which is 9mb.

This cab is from the Blackbird : "http://rapidshare.com/files/349533472/Swype-HTCBlackBird-3.9.10.10.5032.zip" i'ts almost the same as yours.

that would be great to install it just by a cab

Ok it looks like the main difference is the use of the setup.dll and the path of the swype.dll is windows. I'm going to give it a try and if all is working I will post my cab here.

Just would not open when you select it from the menu. It looks from this other cab the dll is placed in windows. I'm going to try this.

Ok I have got it working now. The dll file has to be in Windows directory to work. I'm uploading my complete Full version extracted from the 2.07 ROM now and will post it on the first post. I will also make a version without all the the tutorials to save space and upload it too. But the tutorials are good in the beginning to learn how to swype.

hm there is no other language available if you look into the options
there is also a message that it is not made working on my device (hd2) and will only works with limited functionality (that means it is not possible) to write words

I think it is this way when built in the ROM. I read somewhere that swype was going to add some support for other languages so it might not be implemented yet.
EDIT: The languages are working. just go into the input options for swype or press and hold the top left button to bring up a language menu. The actual keyboard layout doesn't change but the recognition does. Try it.

problem with swype

hi folks, hope someone han help with this.
i'm trying to cook in the latest version of swype (cabbed by lord yuz. from a 'certain' site)
i've converted the cab to an ext but even though it builds it's not opening the keyboard. i can't see what i'm doing wrong but if anyone has a working package or any ideas what i'm missing i'd be grateful
thanks

You need to replace 'ModelName.txt' in Operatorpkg with a T-Mob modelname.

If you are using ervius kitchen, and you created the EXT from the CAB,
normally on your app.dat file you will have only "Directory("\Windows\Swype...")"; try to exchange all of them with the equivalent like "Directory("\Program Files\Swype...")" the problem is that you will have a duplicate of all your file (each in windows directory and also in program files\swype directory).
To make it your default SIP use this reg key in your app.reg.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip]
"DefaultIm"="{7D51A54F-14D0-4eda-AC8D-0AE175C344E8}"
I hope it will help you.

cheers mate, i've tried the modelname and no joy the ext i'm using is writing to the windows directory, i've edited all the paths but no joy on it working. also it's not duplicating the files.
i've cooked in nuesipdefault so swype is selectable. gives the option to choose.
any other ideas from anyone as i'm really stuck with this

maybe you will need also this on your app.reg
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Swype]
"DataDir"="My Documents"
"FirstTime"=dword:1
"InstallDir"="\\Program Files\\Swype"

Swype is one of those apps that cant be set only in windows... sorry bud but it seems that some paths are hardcoded inside the exe file not just in regs, i tried sometimes and cant make it works just in windows\

after trying all the different cabs and ext packages of swype that I could find,
none of them worked when cooked, so I decided to play around with the files from
3 different downloads. I finally managed to create a package that works with
osKitchen for the HD2 - Leo. just extract to your EXT Packages folder.

yeah, its a combination of the Fixed.Blackbird cab and the EXT package with NL patch that can be found on the forums. it works perfectly on my HD2 when cooked using oskitchen.
